The claim: (67 W62/Minuteman III warheads; 525 W87/MX [Peacekeeper] warheads), Cheyenne, 5,866 (missile field covers an additional 12,600 sq. miles)
What it really is: Francis E. Warren Air Force Base is one of three strategic missile bases in the United States, although many of the original solos have since been destroyed and are in private ownership. The base itself is locate right next to the city of Cheyenne, and is on flat, clear land, which would make it difficult to hide any structures that would be used for a prison camp.
Also, taking a look at it via Google Maps I can't really find anything that resembles a prison camp.

East Yellowstone, Wyoming
The claim: Manned internment facility - Investigating patriots were apprehended by European soldiers speaking in an unknown language. Federal government assumed custody of the persons and arranged their release.
What it really is: First let me ask, "Why would the United States be using foreign soldiers for?" That does not make any sense.
Considering how many people visit Yellowstone every year (about 3.4 million, many of them European) it would be pretty hard to keep such facility there hidden from public view.
Considering that there is no exact location of this alleged facility or details, by all appearances this story is most likely made up.

Southwest, Wyoming
The claim: near Lyman - FEMA detention facility
What it really is: This claim appears to be bogus.
I've taken a look around the area and other then a few schools and large churches, I can't find any buildings that might resemble a prison camp around the area.

Laramie, Wyoming
The claim: FEMA detention facility
What it really is: Using Google maps I've seen several several building there (mainly schools and warehouses) that to a conspiracy theorist might actually misidentify as a FEMA camp.
The population of the city is also growing, and now has over 31,000 people. Considering the amount of people living there, it's doubtful such a facility could actually remain hidden without getting much more attention.

Heart Mountain, Wyoming
The claim: Park County N. of Cody - WWII Japanese interment camp ready for renovation.
What it really is: The Heart Mountain Relocation Center (that is it's actually name) was named as a National Historical Landmark in 2007.
The Federal Bureau of Reclamation currently owns 74 acres of the land there, while the Heart Mountain Wyoming Foundation, a non-profit organization established in 1996 to memorialize the center's internees and to interpret the site's historical significance, owns the remaining 50 acres.
Currently a museum called the Heart Mountain Wyoming Interpretive Learning Center is also located there as well.
The site is open to the public.
